Author: jhb Date: Tue Dec 27 20:06:26 2016 New Revision: 310637 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/310637 Log: MFC 309581,309582,310424: Document T6 support. 309581: Document support for Terminator 6 adapters in cxgbe(4) and cxgbev(4). 309582: Bump Dd for addition of T6. 310424: Replace passive voice with active voice and other tweaks. - Drop uses of 'will'. - Replace 'to use' with active voice. - Tidy language around interrupt types and clarify that INTx doesn't work on VFs. - Drop leading articles from sysctl/tunable descriptions. - Tweak the wording of several sysctl/tunable descriptions.
